Association between basic life support and survival in sports-related sudden cardiac arrest: a meta-analysis. Eur Heart J 2023; 44:180-192. [PMID: 36285872 DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehac586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2021] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the association of basic life support with survival after sports-related sudden cardiac arrest (SR-SCA). METHODS AND RESULTS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, a search of several databases from each database inception to 31 July 2021 without language restrictions was conducted. Studies were considered eligible if they evaluated one of three scenarios in patients with SR-SCA: (i) bystander presence, (ii) bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), or (iii) bystander automated external defibrillator (AED) use and provided information on survival. Risk of bias was evaluated using Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions. The primary outcome was survival at the longest follow up. The meta-analysis was conducted using the random-effects model. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) approach was used to rate certainty in the evidence. In total, 28 non-randomized studies were included. The meta-analysis showed significant benefit on survival in all three groups: bystander presence [odds ratio (OR) 2.55, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.48-4.37; I2 = 25%; 9 studies-988 patients], bystander CPR (OR 3.84, 95% CI 2.36-6.25; I2 = 54%; 23 studies-2523 patients), and bystander AED use (OR 5.25, 95% CI 3.58-7.70; I2 = 16%; 19 studies-1227 patients). The GRADE certainty of evidence was judged to be moderate. CONCLUSION In patients with SR-SCA, bystander presence, bystander CPR, and bystander AED use were significantly associated with survival. These results highlight the importance of witness intervention and encourage countries to develop their first aid training policy and AED installation in sport settings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Telephone triage service in emergency care has been introduced in many countries, and it is important to determine the effect of telephone triage service on the outcome of emergency patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of telephone triage service on the outcome of emergency patients using propensity score. METHODS DESIGN, SETTINGS, AND PARTICIPANTS This was a retrospective study with a study period from January 2016 to December 2019. We included all patients transported by ambulances of the Osaka Municipal Fire Department during study period. EXPOSURE Telephone triage service. OUTCOME MEASURES AND ANALYSIS The main outcome of this study was unfavorable outcome following use of the telephone triage service. In this study, unfavorable outcome was defined as patients who were admitted, transferred, or died after care in the emergency department. Propensity scores were calculated using a logistic regression model with 12 variables that were present before the telephone triage service was used or were indicative of the patient's condition. Data analyses were not only propensity score matching but also a multivariable logistic regression model and regression model with propensity score as a covariate. MAIN RESULTS The number of patients eligible for analyses was 707 474. Of these patients, 8008 (1.0%) used the telephone triage services and 699 466 patients (99.0%) did not use it. The number of patients with an unfavorable outcome was 407 568 (57.6%) in the total cohort. Of them, 2305 patients (28.8%) used the telephone triage service and 297 601 patients (42.5%) did not use it. For propensity score matching, 8008 patients were matched from each group. Use of the telephone triage service was inversely associated with unfavorable outcome in a multivariate logistic regression model with propensity score as a covariate [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 0.874; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.831-0.919] and propensity score matching (crude OR, 0.875; 95% CI, 0.818-0.936). CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that the use of the telephone triage service in Osaka city, Japan was associated with better outcomes of patients transported by ambulance.

Abstract
: The role of early defibrillation has been well established as a pivotal ring of the chain of survival since the nineties. In the following years, the scientific evidences about the beneficial role of early defibrillation have grown, and most of all, it has been demonstrated that the main determinant of survival is the time of defibrillation more than the type of rescuer. Early lay defibrillation was shown to be more effective than delayed defibrillation by healthcare providers. Moreover, because of the ease of use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs), it has been shown that also untrained lay rescuers can safely use an AED leading the guidelines to encourage early defibrillation by untrained lay bystanders. Although strong evidence has demonstrated that an increase in AED use leads to an increase in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survival, the rate of defibrillation by laypeople is quite variable worldwide and very low in some realities. Our review of the literature about lay defibrillation highlights that the AED is a life-saving device as simple and well tolerated as underused.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate variations in the effects of prehospital advanced airway management (AAM) on outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients according to regional emergency medical service (EMS) systems in four Asian cities. METHODS We enrolled adult patients with EMS-treated OHCA of presumed cardiac origin between 2012 and 2014 from Osaka (Japan), Seoul (Republic of Korea), Singapore (Singapore), and Taipei (Taiwan). The main exposure variable was prehospital AAM. The primary endpoint was neurological recovery. We compared outcomes between the prehospital AAM and non-AAM groups using multivariable logistic regression with an interaction term between prehospital AAM and the four Asian cities. RESULTS A total of 16,510 patients were included in the final analyses. The rates of prehospital AAM varied among Osaka, Seoul, Singapore, and Taipei (65.0%, 19.2%, 84.9%, and 34.1%, respectively). The non-AAM group showed better outcomes than the AAM group (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] for neurological recovery 0.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.24-0.38]). In the interaction model for neurological recovery, the aORs for AAM in Osaka and Singapore were 0.12 (95% CI, 0.06-0.26) and 0.21 (95% CI, 0.16-0.28), respectively. In Seoul and Taipei, the association between prehospital AAM and neurological recovery was not significant (aOR 0.58 [95% CI, 0.31-1.10] and 0.79 [95% CI, 0.52-1.20], respectively). The interaction between prehospital AAM and region was significant (P=0.01). CONCLUSION The effects of prehospital AAM on outcomes of OHCA patients differed according to regional variability in the EMS systems.

Exercise-related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Victoria, Australia. Resuscitation 2019; 139:57-64. [PMID: 30981883 DOI: 10.1016/j.resuscitation.2019.03.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2019] [Revised: 03/18/2019] [Accepted: 03/31/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Characteristics and outcomes of exercise-related out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) are not well described in Australia. METHODS This was a retrospective observational study of non-exercise-related aetiology and exercise-related OHCAs from the Victorian Ambulance Cardiac Arrest Registry between 2008 and 2016, including 12-month quality of life data from 2010 to 2016. Exercise-related OHCA was defined as taking place during or within 1 h of at least moderate intensity exercise. Descriptive statistics and adjusted logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS During the study period there were 482 exercise-related and 33,358 non-exercise-related OHCAs. Jogging/running were the most frequent precipitating sports. The incidence rate of exercise-related OHCA was low (<1 per 100,000 person-years). Compared to non-exercise-related aetiology, exercise-related OHCAs were younger (mean 54 versus 70 years, p < 0.001) and more likely to present in an initial shockable rhythm (85% versus 18%, p < 0.001). Bystander CPR, and bystander or EMS defibrillation at any time, were more common among exercise-related arrests (93% versus 38%, p < 0.001 and 91% versus 24%, p < 0.001, respectively). A public access defibrillator was used in 24% of shockable exercise-related OHCAs compared with 4% of non-exercise-related OHCAs (p < 0.001). After adjustment for arrest characteristics, exercise-related OHCAs were more likely to survive to hospital discharge (50% versus 14%, p < 0.001; adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.56, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.25-1.96, p < 0.001) and survive to 12-months with good functional recovery (72% versus 62%, p = 0.012; AOR = 1.57, 95% CI 1.08-2.28, p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS Exercise-related OHCAs were associated with better short- and long-term prognoses compared to non-exercise-related OHCAs. The underlying factors associated with this survival benefit warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Aim This study aimed to reveal the characteristics and outcomes of patients with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) occurring in the toilet. These traits provide useful clues for the prevention of OHCAs and the improvement of prehospital care for these patients. Methods Out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest data were obtained from the population‐based, Utstein‐style registry in Osaka City, Japan, between 2009 and 2015. This study identified patients with OHCAs that occurred inside the toilet. The primary end‐point was 1‐month survival with favorable neurological outcome after OHCA. Results During the 7‐year study period, a total of 18,458 OHCAs were identified. Of these cases, 849 (4.6%) occurred inside the toilet. Among them, the analysis included 733 patients. The distribution depicting monthly OHCA occurrences showed that OHCAs tended to occur in cold months (28.1% [206/733] from October to December and 30.0% [220/733] from January to March). Most OHCAs occurring inside the toilet were of cardiac origin (91.5% [671/733]), and 36.2% (265/733) were witnessed by bystanders. The proportion of patients with ventricular fibrillation was 5.2% (38/733) and those receiving shocks by public‐access automated external defibrillators was 0.4% (3/733). The proportion of patients with 1‐month survival with favorable neurological outcome was 1.9% (14/733). Conclusions Out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrests occurring inside the toilet accounted for 4.6% of all OHCAs and were frequently observed during cold months, and their outcome was poor. Establishment of preventive measures against OHCAs occurring in the toilet as well as earlier recognition of OHCAs are needed.

Abstract
AIM To systematically review studies comparing bystander automated external defibrillator (AED) use to no AED use in regard to clinical outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), and to provide a descriptive summary of studies on the cost-effectiveness of bystander AED use. METHODS We searched Medline, Embase, the Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for randomized trials and observational studies published before June 1, 2017. Meta-analyses were performed for patients with all rhythms, shockable rhythms, and non-shockable rhythms. RESULTS Forty-four observational studies, 3 randomized trials, and 13 cost-effectiveness studies were included. Meta-analysis of 6 observational studies without critical risk of bias showed that bystander AED use was associated with survival to hospital discharge (all rhythms OR: 1.73 [95%CI: 1.36, 2.18], shockable rhythms OR: 1.66 [95%CI: 1.54, 1.79]) and favorable neurological outcome (all rhythms OR: 2.12 [95%CI: 1.36, 3.29], shockable rhythms OR: 2.37 [95%CI: 1.58, 3.57]). There was no association between bystander AED use and neurological outcome for non-shockable rhythms (OR: 0.76 [95%CI: 0.10, 5.87]). The Public-Access Defibrillation trial found higher survival rates when volunteers were equipped with AEDs. The other trials found no survival difference, although their study settings differed. The quality of evidence was low for randomized trials and very low for observational studies. AEDs were cost-effective in settings with high cardiac arrest incidence, with most studies reporting ratios < $100,000 per quality-adjusted life years. CONCLUSIONS The evidence supports the association between bystander AED use and improved clinical outcomes, although the quality of evidence was low to very low.
